Create a New Tag from an Entity in Another Module

To create a new tag while creating or editing a new entity in a module other than tags, type in the desired new tag name in the tag field for the entity.  For aid in visibility, emojis can be used in the tag name.


How To Determine if a New Tag Can be Created

when an Entity is Created / Edited

Some modules allow for a new tag to be created when an entity is being created or edited. You can identify if this feature is enabled for an entity by typing in the desired tag name. If this feature is enabled, you will see a line under the Tags Field that states, “Press Enter to add new tag.” If this feature is not enabled, you will see a line under the Tags Field that states, “No options”.

Finish creating / editing the entity as desired. After saving your changes to the entity, the Tag will be created. By default, the new Tag will have Open behavior, and be assigned the “uncategorized” category. To make changes to these settings, go to the Manage Page of the Tags Module.
